    Interesting, subtle Allen film. It strikes a somber, emotionally rich tone (which is ironic, given that the character does not allow herself to feel emotions). This is supposed to be an homage to Allen's idol Bergman.

    Just okay.

    Woody Allen can't make a good movie.

    I was surprised by how much I liked this movie, and Gena Rowlands in particular

    Come on! It's Woody and Gene Hackman!

    I liked it because I guess I relate to the characters, in a way. The performances are really great especially the one from Gena Rowlands. Even if you don't usually like Woody Allen, I think you should give it a chance.

    Enchanting and elegant. This drama features people showing many sides of humanity: misery, arrogance, depression, confusion and ultimately, love. Magnificient art direction, very sober and yet beautiful, it could be mistaken as an european film. The reason? Woody Allen likes euro...( read more) style and in this particular case, he pays tribute to his all time filming hero: Ingmar Bergman. Highly recommendable.

    En Another Woman (1988), Woody Allen fue capaz de ofrecer un sensible melodrama femenino, pequeño pero nunca flojo y siempre interesante. Además, sacrificó de alguna manera a su musa y pareja en aquellos años, Mia Farrow, quien aparece en un papel secundario, para darle el protag...( read more)ónico a Gena Rowlands, convirtiéndola en nuestro principal centro de atención.

    No hay más que regocijarse en la manera en que logra introducirnos en la mente y dolor emocional del personaje de la Rowlands, a través de sencillos close-ups. Su torturada y solitaria escritora, está pasando por una profunda crisis existencial. De buenas a primeras decide recluirse en un pequeño apartamento de Nueva York, para sumergirse de lleno en su próximo libro. Sin quererlo, la autora se convierte en la depositaria de todas las confesiones que una joven mujer embarazada (Farrow) le dice a su psicólogo en sus terapias, escuchándolo todo por el ducto de ventilación.

    Gena Rowlands ofrece una magnífica actuación, en todo ese vacío y confusión emocional que logra transmitir, en esa tristeza que lleva atrapada por dentro y no logra dejar salir. Está a punto de romper con esas ataduras y llegar a su liberación, justo cuando se de cuenta que, para la joven de las terapias psicológicas, representa una imagen a la que jamás quisiera llegar.

    This reminds me a lot of Bergman's most annoying releases like "Automn Sonata" or "Scenes from a Marriage", well, at least in my humble opinion : )
    I think Woody Allen should stick with witty comedies.
